Different Types Of Asbestos Abatement
Most people are not aware of the different types of asbestos, there are six different type of fiber-based asbestos commonly found today in both residential and
commercial properties. Although not all types of asbestos are considered hazardous, all six fiber based asbestos fibers are too small to be seen by the human eye. These asbestos fibers are small enough to be inhaled and trapped in your lungs.
Chrysotile Asbestos
Chrysotile asbestos is one of the most commonly used asbestos fibers, commonly used in cement buildings and textiles. Chrysotile asbestos accounts for approximately 95% of all asbestos fibers in the U.S. These fibers are white with a flexible or curly appearance. Despite the use of Chrysotile asbestos declining drastically, it is still the most commonly found asbestos.
Tremolite Asbestos
Tremolite asbestos is often a dark green or milky white color with sharp fibers that are easy to digest and inhale. Tremolite asbestos is the most dangerous asbestos type. Tremolite is no longer used or mined but is responsible for a significant amount of asbestos-related illnesses.
Amosite Asbestos
Amosite asbestos fibers are also sharp like Tremolite, this type of asbestos is easily trapped within your lungs and other parts of your body after inhalation causing a wide array of bodily harms. Amosite asbestos is the second most commonly found asbestos.
Anthophyllite Asbestos
Anthophyllite asbestos is one of the rarest types of asbestos. Anthophyllite does not have a long history of commercial use and is extremely uncommon in the United States.
Actinolite Asbestos

Crocidolite Asbestos
Crocidolite asbestos is likely responsible for more deaths than any other type of asbestos because the fibers are extremely thin. These extremely thin fibers cause the fibers to more easily to get caught in your lung tissue. This type of asbestos is not commonly found in the United States.
